Elgaloy Mix 18B Electrodes

Elgaoly Mix 18B is an all positional basic-coated electrode which deposits a 19% Cr / 9% Ni / 6% Mn fully austenitic stainless steel weld metal with excellent toughness and crack resistance. It is intended for joining hardenable steels, armour plate, 13% Mn steels and difficult-to-weld steels, without the need for preheat. It is also recommended for dissimilar joints between stainless and mild or medium carbon steels. Welds produced with Elgaloy Mix 18B can be PWHT without risk of sigma-phase formation and consequent loss of ductility. The deposit work hardens from 200 HV to 450HV.

Classification: EN 1600-97 / E 18 8 Mn B 12 / AWS A5.4 / ~E 307-15
